Free Editing Sample

Before deciding if you’d like to follow through in working with me, we’d start with a free editing sample. It can be up to 2000 words or the first three chapters of your manuscript.

Depending on which editing service you choose (proofreading, copy & line edits, blurb edits), the sample would show you how I work. Mainly with track changes and suggestions and or critiques. In addition, a style sheet would be included.

Beta Reading

*Beta Readers are not a replacement for an editor*

I’d give detailed critiques/suggestions via track changes throughout the manuscript, alongside a beta reader report with predetermined questions and questions you, the author, may have.

This does not include edits. Merely critiques, suggestions, questions, and more.

Pricing: 30.00 USD

Blurb/Synopsis Edit

This includes an initial read of the blurb, focusing on the hook, intrigue, character(s), setting, and problem. Along with thoughts and suggestions in the form of track changes.

Then, an edit to focus on the syntax, any grammatical issues, readability, and overall tone with a marked up document via track changes would be implemented.

Pricing 10.00 USD

Copy/Line Editing

This is a combined service as copy and line edits can be looked at as separate forms of editing.

I would implement at least two rounds of copy edits (to ensure nothing is amiss), and two rounds of line edits. I want to be as thorough as possible so that you receive the best quality I can muster. In addition, I would include a style sheet for all necessary information to keep shape of your tone from start to finish.

For copy edit rounds, I would focus on spelling, grammar, punctuation, and syntax.

For line edit rounds, the focus would go to narration, tone, language, and readability. All while ensuring the original tone of the work is not lost and is strengthened from start to finish.

I’ll also implement any comments/suggestions via track changes while working on your manuscript, and include a report on my findings.

Pricing: Requires a 15% deposit. 300.00 USD

Proofreading

This focuses primarily on any lingering errors from previous rounds of edits, formatting inconsistencies, and ensuring names, places, and times have consistent spelling and functionality throughout the manuscript.

A marked up document via track changes as well as a final document would be what you’d receive in the end, along with a style sheet if not already provided by a previous edit.

Pricing for books: Requires a 15% deposit. 200.00 USD

Pricing for all other inquires, i.e. emails, articles, essays: 10.00 to 25.00 USD
